Madonna and Guy deny marriage problems

Madonna and Guy Ritchie deny reports that their marriage is in trouble.

Madonna and Guy Ritchie have put on a united front following rumours that their marriage is in trouble.

The pair booked a table at a Mayfair restaurant on Thursday night to prove that there is no truth in the claims. A report in The Mirror had suggested that Madonna's "special working relationship" with her musical collaborator Stuart Price was driving them apart.

"She and Guy had a big laugh over the recent reporting of the special friendship with her songwriting/producing partner, dance music genius Stuart Price," a spokeswoman told The Sun.

A friend added, "Madonna and Guyâ€™s marriage has always been extremely fiery - but they make no secret of that. She was attracted to Guy because he is his own man and he stands up to her. She is a strong, bossy person, too, and she likes to have things her own way. Often itâ€™s fireworks between them.

"It is fair to say their relationship has been under huge strain because of Madonnaâ€™s excessive workload recently. She has thrown herself 100 per cent into promoting her album and has little time left to spend with Guy. But heâ€™ll get over it. He is going to the Grammys with her next week and he will be at her side at the Brit Awards the following week."
